Keep Tabs On Your Favorite Artists With Following!

We recently hinted at a new feature we’ve been building that allows you to follow all your favorite threadpals.

Here’s what you can do with Following!

  • Follow all of your favorite artists and community members and be notified when they submit new designs to Threadless.
  • Find out when artists you dig have new designs available to purchase.
  • Be notified the moment a new design challenge starts.
  • See the designs your friends are scoring 5$ so you can get in on the action.
  • Get a heads up when someone follows you!
  • Automatically follow artists whose designs you’ve purchased or scored a 5$.

Show off your work!

When you submit a new design to Threadless, we’ll give a shout to all of your followers to come check out your new sub. We’ll also notify your followers when they can purchase your newly printed design. Think of it like instant access to all of your Threadfans!

You may have noticed you’re already following some people. We started you off following the Threadless artists who designed the stuff you’ve bought in the past so you could keep tabs on their future work. If you’d like to unfollow them, just head to your profile and tweak your Following list.

We’ve got a bunch of new following and notification options up our sleeves, especially when it comes to the forum, so stay tuned for updates!

You can always choose which notifications you’d like to receive by logging into your account and adjusting your notification settings.

If you have questions or feedback about following and notifications, please check out our FAQ or post them below and we’ll give you a shout. We'd love to know what notifications you'd like next!

Actually, I'm not sure I like the followers/ing thing to be public. I mostly want to follow some artists so I don't miss their designs, and a few bloggers so I don't miss their shenanigans. Making it public turns it into a popularity networking exercise.

Only thing I don't like is how you can see what designs your friends scored 5, so you can all dogpile in with the comments. That seems to encourage hoard mentality imo.

I turned that off because ain't nobody got time for so many notifications

It essentially gives more weight to the opinions of people who have a large number of followers.

New notifications system is amazing.. But I think it could be also notifications when: Someone comments your own submitted designs Someone you follow post a new blog Someone comments a blog you posted

I think Manupix's and [+duracell-]'s input are right on the mark. I like the feature, but think it needs to be tuned so that the positive-feedback-loops don't get out of hand.
